Before I found Improstation, I was stuck and frustrated. After working through the first course, I can now sit at the piano and create real music. I feel free and inspired again.
I always thought improvisation wasn’t for ‘serious’ musicians. Now I know better. These courses are clear, deep, and incredibly liberating. Thank you!
I used to dread practicing. Now I actually look forward to it, because every day I discover something new in my own playing.
